Possible water supply due to level 2 loadshedding

POSSIBLE WATER SUPPLY INTERRUPTION DUE TO LEVEL 2 LOAD SHEDDING

Dear Mthatha Residents

O.R. Tambo District Municipality (ORTDM) would like to notify Mthatha residents of possible water interruptions due to stage 2 electricity load shedding. ORTDM relies on electricity supply for pumping water. Therefore, the reservoirs are being drained fast when we lose pumping and residents are urged to use water sparingly.

Please note that all areas might be affected.

RESIDENTS ARE KINDLY ADVISED TO STORE WATER IN PORTABLE CONTAINERS TO USE DURING THIS PERIOD.

The loss of pumping normally affects our water supply stability beyond the return of the electricity as we always start from zero water levels in our reservoirs.

The Municipality would also like to apologise for the inconvenience caused.
